I cant remember it now, but im thinking it said that the verification failed and aborted
You could boot into recovery and try flashing the rom again too see what error it was, it could be that you need to just upload the bootloader.
Do you have a micro sd card? do you have a micro sd card reader for your computer? If so, download a rom and gapps (if required), put the files on the mico sd card and put the micro sd card back in your phone, boot into recovery, do a full wipe and flash the rom and then gapps (if needed).

Looks like it was a bad download. You need to download the rom again (make sure its for your device) along with the gapps.
boot into recovery and do a full wipe
install rom then gapps
then reboot the phone.
In the future you should check the md5 of the download before flashing it. If the md5 matches then you okay to flash, if it doesnt match, then theres something wrong with the download. Just google "check md5", then go from there.

my method of rooting was by 'Official Phone Rebel' on -youtube- the video was called:
""How To Root ANY Samsung Galaxy S3 4.1.2 & 4.1.1 - Verizon/AT&T/Sprint/T-mobile/I9300 Version""

I am trying to install the ozzey ROM on my incredible I just got it and rooted it. I have Rom managr, astro file viewer and titanium backup installed. I know I can do it via update.zip or Rom manager but it always fails and says signature verification failed. I triple checked the file to see that it was in .zip not .zip.zip I had windows show the hidden file extensions. In Rom manager it says whole file verification failed along with signature file. Astro file viewer shows it as update and on the root of the SD card but still get the error. I haven't done nand unlock or backup, and I don't care about looking any apps its a new phone with nothing on it. Any suggestions or method instructions? Does the SD card have to be fat32? My SD card is the 2gb pny card. Thanks!
You should just be able to use the .zip, put it anywhere on your sd card. Boot into Clockwork Recovery (If you flashed the new recovery using reflash.exe from unrevoked), DO A NANDROID BACKUP (this is a full system backup), format the user data and cache partition (both options), select update with a .zip and select your preferred .zip file (in your case ozzeh's)
See here for more information and any questions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=709220
Any thoughts as to why I am getting those errors? Can I use the re flash tool and go into clockmode recovery and install througt that?
If you do not have clockwork recovery you're not going to be able to flash a ROM. You need to use the reflash tool before you can flash any ROMS.
i have clockwork recovery its on my phone but it still won't flash. Also I tried the reflash but it keeps saying that its interrupted, I uninstalled HTC Sync and it still doesn't work. I also tried to format the sd card to fat32 and ran clockwork recovery but it didnt work same error
It's not clear from your posts exactly what your error is. You say you have Clockworkmod Recovery installed but you keep referencing trying to flash from ROM Manager.
What happens when you boot into Recovery and try to flash the zip file from there?
I instaleld Clockworkmod from ROM Manager, 2.0.1.3 is the verison of clockworkmod I have installed on the phone. I then use ROM Manager to install ROM SD card and it fails, it says signature verification failed and whole-file verification failed. I booted into it and it says it can't find the file in /cache/ and it says verification failed so it aborts and reboots.

You might want to try a different rom and see how it goes.
That makes no sense. You can't flash CWM Recovery from ROM Manager on the Incredible (although you can update a prior install, sort of); you have to use unrevoked's tool.

I thought I remember reading in some thread that ROM Manager going to clockworkmod will not work because there is no write access.
You will have to use recovery reflash tool to install the clockworkmod recovery and boot into it.
You can find that information in this thread:

You can use Rom manager to boot into clockwork recovery and install the zip from there however, you can't use the feature "Install rom from sd card" within rom manager itself.
Well I tried using just ROM manager to boot into clockwork and I was able to but it still gives me the same errors. I can't do the unevoked flash it reboots then says the communications were intruputed. I deleted HTC synch and had the usb on both disk drive connection and HTC synch but it doesn't go through

Did you ever successfully use unrevoked's flash utility? If you just downloaded rom manager and booted in to recovery without successfully flashing, that won't work.
If you're having problems using the reflash tool then I suggest you get that working and then try again installing a rom.
Use terminal emulator to verify u have su.. Just type su and click accept, if u can do that follow word for word unrevoked reflash method, including installing the correct drivers for adb.

i just did terminal emulator and i get root acess, #, superuser comes up and allows me to access it, so I will try again but for some reason I get that communication was interuppted.
hey, thanks to all you guys I finally got the custom ROM to work. I did the revoked flash, i had to delete the old htc driver and start again, and once it finally flashed just mounted the sd card and installed, worked perfectly, thanks again!!

THIS POST IS COPY/PASTE FROM "DESIRE ANDROID DEVELOPMENT"...I THINK THIS IS RIGHT PLACE FOR THIS POST PERHAPS...
Hi there got some problems with ROM manager (latest version from Market)...
I put new LeeDroid on my SD card and when start ROM manager goes to "Install rom from sd card" RM asked me for directory and I "tell" him where the ROM is...when I tap on LeeDroid (.zip) ask me for ROM Pre-installation and I tick both options - OK - press Reboot into Clockwork Recovery and continue the installation. I press OK and nothing happened then
Then tried with untick both options - same thing...
Then I try Reboot into Recovery options and nothing happened again
Then download CyanogenMod 6.1.1. from ROM manager - same thing...nothing happened
But when I Reboot into Recovery mod (Hot reboot app) reboot was successfull and I was making System backup....
What is going wrong there
Please help me
Clockwork mode is 2.5.0.7.
P.S.
Sorry if my english is poor
If the ROM Manager is giving you problems, just install your ROM from the recovery menu
Ok...I'll try now
It's going on......and finished
What now?? Nothing happened after that....I have to put the battery out or what?
I was put the battery out and then start device...i'm in AlphaRev Recovery now and when press "Reboot system now" nothing happened??
You mean you have installed Leedroid from your SD card in Recovery?
Once successfully installed, you don't need to pull out your battery, you just need to find the option in your recovery to restart OR boot up your system.

toggle signature verification
toggle script asserts
What have to do now?? I pressed APPLY UPDATE FROM SD CARD and said:
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Installing update... and below is everything the same like when was installing Ledroid..
What now?? There's no any menu....
I put back Recovery from Nand backup and press "reboot system now" but there is just black screen on device and nothin' happened..
PLEASE HELP ANYONE!
Finally
Reboot to fastbot was my option and then reboot
you should be selecting [choose .zip from card], then navigate to whatever you named your Leedroid zip.
After this installs and completes, select the option to reboot system, and you're good to go.

I wrote it in a post above
But thanks
Got new problem now...unbelivable...
Put LeeDriod on the device and don't like it....and want to back to my stock 2.2 backup...
But when in Recovery mod put Restore...said MD5 mismatch...and try again but now said: E: failed to seek in /cache/update.zip (invalid argument)
E: signature verification failed
Installation aborted
But how?? I was recover once today successfully...what's goin' wrong?
md5 mismatch could mean that the recovery is corrupted?
try turning signature verification off in your recovery to try to fix your signature verification failed problem.
OR try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=714114
But I have to ask, when you did you make that backup of that stock 2.2?

I don't really understand what you asked me
I found on xda forum 2.2 stock ROM (rooted) and put it on my phone and fixed all my problems
I recently installed LeeDroId using CWR.
Steps i followed >
1. Download LeeDroId onto SD card.
2. Boot into Recovery
3. BACKUP EXISTING ROM
4. Wipe old rom
5. Install LeeDroId, by navigating to the zip file
6. Reboot once installed
7. WAIT. 1st boot takes about 4 mins.
Done
That worked for me.
stock recovery gives me error "E:signature verification failed"
In stock recovery, I can see my sdcard and select which zip file i want to install.. but when i do, i get the signature verification error.
CW recovery cannot see my sdcard (tried 3 different cards so far) and gives me error: files not found. Mounting SDcard does not do anything.
reformatted the 3 SDcards many times. , wiped the phone cache and tried disabling signature verification in CW recovery.
Phone is bricked now and has no ROM installed. Access to download and recovery mode are my 2 options only.

You're getting the signature error.because you are trying to flash an unofficial zip. With stock recovery the zip has to have a signature for it to flash.(this is why we need custom recovery)
What version of cwm are you flashing? If its the one that doesn't support the external SD card you have to put whatever zip you want to flash on the internal SD card, not the external. I think newer versions of cwm released have support for the external card. If you can get into download mode I would suggest flashing the stock rom and kernel through odin

Had this happen to my brother's phone last night where sd cards won't read and he couldn't flash a ROM. Your phone is not bricked if you can get into CWM or Odin mode. Take a look at this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1282420
Use Odin to flash to the stock eg30.tar and start from scratch. I'm new so I hope I didn't lead you into the wrong path or tell you something you already knew. Good luck!

Can you give a bit more explanation?
Which kernel do you have installed right now? Which ROM do you have installed?
Here is how i fixed this:
1- File (SPH-D710_Zedomax_EpicTouchKernel-v3 (SPH-D710_Zedomax_EpicTouchKernel-v3.tar) allowed me back into SDCard since it has CWM5. CW5 was able to do what CWM4 was not : give me access to sdcard. It also eliminated signature verification error.
2- Loaded Starburst ROM.
One common misconceptions here.
Very few people here understand the difference between firmware, kernel and ROM. You search for stock ROM and you will get stock kernel, stock firmware but NEVER stock ROM.
Also, ODIN DOES NOT allow ROM flashing. Odin does not recognize zip format. All ROMs are in zip format.

E: failed to verify whole-file signature
E: signature verification failed
Installation aborted.
My menu is so different that last part where it says: "Installation aborted", does not appear.
Maybe I have not installed the Recovery Version required for this installation,because even in the menu options do not appear as I have seen in other tutorials, for example:
The option "ADVANCE" to Wipe Dalvik Cache do

That is because you have twrp set to simulate actions rather than perform them. You need to adb push a rom zip to your sdcard, uncheck the box in settings that says simulate most actions, do a full wipe minus the sdcard and flash the rom zip.

First let me say this STOP!!! That method for returning to stock is okay for the first gen device not the second gen. No wonder it keeps failing and probably better that it has. Keep the device charging in recovery or off till I can help you fix this without seriously bricking your kindle. You need to adb push Hashcodes flashable stock zip only not update.zip. Unless you don't care and you happen to need an extra paperweight .
